Prednisone

[mintymow]

Anyone else taking Prednisone and struggling with feeling hungry a lot of the time. I'm not on a high dose, 9mg per day and reducing, but never really feel full. Have put on a few pounds and trying to lose them but its difficult.

A common side effect I'm afraid.

My cat gets Prednislone for his Asthma. He liked his food before he went onto the steroids. He waskes me up during the night for food. If you find a solution it may stop me from throttling him.

I've been taking it since Christmas, currently on 25mg per day reducing 5mg per week. Can't say I have noticed an increase in appetite and have not gained any weight
